It’s the elderly up there in those (essentially mobile) homes that just hit me in the gut. You just know they were in no condition to travel at the drop of a hat, especially needing any meds or oxygen. Many likely stayed where they were.

I have this picture in my head of an older man or woman, in a wheelchair or with a walker, watching almost helplessly as the fire came toward them. Maybe there were little dogs or cats with them.

They had no chance.

Them what started these fires had better hope I never catch up to them.
